My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Aloha, I'm Kaohu, your soon to be favorite island pup! Picture this: a 5-month-old female Catahoula Leopard mix with a brindle coat as bold as a Hawaiian sunset and soulful brown eyes that'll make you swoon faster than a coconut falls from a tree. Yep, that's me! I'm all about the beach vibes and belly rubs, but hey, I'm a bit shy at first-I like to make sure you're cool enough to hang with. But once I know you're my ohana, get ready for endless adventures! Just promise me one thing: a forever family who's down for some serious fun and committed to teaching me the ropes...obedience training, proper leash walking, etc...in order for me to show you how I can be the "best doggie" ever! Mahalo for considering me as your newest furry companion! Email customerservice@kauaihumane.org or call 808-632-0610 to set up a meet and greet today!

More about this shelter

The Kauai Humane Society was established by the community in 1952 as a local non-profit 501(c)(3) organization to protect Kauai’s animals. We opened our current home just west of Lihue in 2001 thanks to the generous support of many individuals, families, businesses and foundations. We are an independent animal welfare organization and not a chapter of any mainland or Hawaii group.

The Kauai Humane Society(KHS) is the only physical animal shelter in Kauai County, Hawaii. We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization with a government contract to allow KHS to provide services to Kauai County for humane field services for cats and dogs.

Our facility does not turn away any sick or injured cat or dog found on Kauai. We strive to not euthanize any healthy, adoptable, and/or treatable animals for space or treatable medical reasons.

In 2022, for the year overall, KHS achieved a Live Release Rate of 94.4%; meaning 94.4% of the animals that came into KHS during 2022 were released with a positive outcome of being adopted, returned to the owner, or transferred to a rescue group.
